Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a combined continuous casting and metal strip hot-rolling plant in austenitic range or in ferritic range, able to produce rolled strips in the form of coils.
  • the continuous casted slab is cut into slab pieces to a size such that a length of strip corresponding to multiple coils of the desired size, e.g. from 3 to 7 coils, is obtained for each slab piece at the end of the rolling process; flying shears being successively used to obtain coils of desired size wound on the winding reels.
  • the product which is wound at the end of each treatment, may remain stationary in the warehouse for even several days. About two months may elapse from when the slab is cast to when the strip is ready for sale. So, disadvantageously two dedicated rolling lines are needed, one for hot rolling and another one for cold rolling, and the product processing completion time is very long.
  • AHSS Advanced High Strength Steel
  • the present invention thus aims at reaching the objects discussed above by means of a combined continuous casting and metal strip endless rolling plant which comprises:
  • a third rolling mill comprising at least two first rolling stands, for further reducing the thickness of the strip
  • - accumulation means of the strip, downstream of said third rolling mill comprising at least one first high-capacity reel, sized to wind and unwind a coil weighing from 80 to 250 metric tons and/or up to 6 meters in diameter, named mega coil;
  • a cutting and winding line downstream of said accumulation means, for cutting the strip of the mega coil and winding portions of said strip of the mega coil up to a predetermined weight limit or coil diameter limit, producing a plurality of coils;
  • a second aspect of the present invention provides a continuous casting and endless rolling process of metal strip, performed by means of the aforesaid plant, which comprises the following steps:
  • mega coil means a coil of strip, weighing from 80 to 250 metric tons and/or of up to 6 meters in diameter, preferably from 3 to 6 meters.
  • the risk of jamming due to the introduction of strips with portions thinner than 0.8 mm, preferably thinner than 0.7 mm is null, despite the fast rate of advancement of the strip.
  • the speed of the strip reaches 1320 m/min.
  • the strip only needs to be successively pickled, and possibly surface-worked by tempering rolling, coated and/or pre-painted (Figure 8). Indeed, all the remaining heat and rolling treatments are performed aboard the single rolling layout. This makes it possible to shorten the time between product casting and its finalization in view of sales, which becomes less than a month.
  • DQ Drawing Quality
  • DDQ Deep-Drawing Quality
  • EDDQ Extra Deep-Drawing Quality
  • the plant of the invention provides a third rolling mill with at least two further rolling stands downstream of the finishing mill, which further rolling stands make it possible to further reduce the thickness of the strip and may be preceded, in a variant of the invention, by a rapid heating device or by a rapid cooling device, according to whether it is desired to work in austenitic range or in ferritic range.
  • a further rapid heating device may be provided upstream of the finishing mill in order to keep the rolling in austenitic range.
  • the strip is not sent directly to the conventional winding reels, suitable for winding strip with a thickness of at least 1 mm, but after being cooled by the laminar cooling line, it is sent to an accumulation station of the mega coil type, which in turn sends it to a warm rolling mill with final winding reels upstream and downstream of the reversible rolling mill.
  • the weights of the final coils on the final winding reels are fixed on automation level, by setting a weight limit and optionally a diameter limit.
  • the mega coil type accumulation station is coupled to a cutting and winding line also comprising a reversible rolling mill with at least two rolling stands, e.g. only two, designed to obtain the rolling process known as "warm rolling".
  • This warm rolling mill receives material at temperature from 200 to 600 °C, with inlet thickness from 0.5 to 5 mm and rolls it to outlet thickness from 0.25 to 2.0 mm. In particular, thicknesses from 0.25 to 2.0 mm for low-carbon steel strips and thicknesses from 0.5 to 1 .5 mm for HSS strips can be obtained.
  • At least one reel and respective cutting means are provided upstream and downstream of the reversible rolling mill.
  • either even or odd, portions or stretches of strip, optionally of different thickness and weight, are separated by means of the respective cutting means and the corresponding coils of strip, with specific weight from 10 to 20 kg/mm and weight up to 35 metric tons, preferably from 15 to 35 metric tons, are wound onto the adjacent reel.
  • specific weight from 10 to 20 kg/mm and weight up to 35 metric tons, preferably from 15 to 35 metric tons, are wound onto the adjacent reel.
  • from 5 to 8 coils, optionally of different thicknesses and weight can be obtained from one mega coil.
  • specific weight is a method used in the steel industry to define the weight of the coils processed by the plants. For instance, 18 kg/mm means that in order to calculate the weight (kg) of the coil it will suffice to multiply the width (mm) of the strip by the specific weight (kg/mm).
  • the number of reversible rolling steps is variable according to the desired final thickness.
  • At least two high-capacity reels are provided for the reversible rolling of the mega coil, arranged one upstream and one downstream of the reversible rolling mill and adapted to wind and unwind the entire mega coil.
  • the rolling stands of the third rolling mill are programed to roll to a specific thickness, which may be either equal for all stretches of strip or different according to the final production requirements and to the desired thickness of the production batch.
  • the working method provides that when an ultra-thin strip campaign is started, a strip of a thickness such as to minimize the risks of jamming is firstly rolled, e.g. thicker than or equal to 1 mm, which will initially be wound on conventional winding systems.
  • the strip is cut by means of a flying cutting shear; the tail of cut strip is wrapped around the coil already wound on the conventional reel, while the head of the strip obtained by cutting is routed toward the accumulation means comprising two reels for mega coils, for example.
  • the winding on one of these mega coil reels is promoted by a belt wrapper which promotes the winding of the first turns.
  • the wrapper opens and gradually the stands of the third rolling mill begin to roll at different thicknesses, whereby producing stretches of strip of decreasing and then increasing thickness with respect to an initial thickness of at least 1 mm, which are seamlessly wound on the mega coil winding reel.
  • any deviation of the belt from the center line of the plant may be measured by appropriate optical sensors and a centering system moves the mega coil winding reel which is mounted on slides to allow this movement with low friction, the movement being controlled by hydraulic actuator.

  • Figure 3 is a diagrammatic view of a dual strip winding and unwinding system
